Let be the value now assumed by ; then it is

D. We bring the body to rest in an adiabatic and isochoric way. There, the work

is performed. The state of the body is now given by the variables . The total work of the external forces is:

According to the first thermodynamic main-theorem, the work must be equal to . The second main-theorem additionally requires, that this difference is zero. Otherwise this circular process (or the reverse one) would represent a thermal perpetual motion machine. Thus we put in the previous expressions; then we notice that

and

thus we obtain:

or according to (2):

(6)

Thus we obtain the theorem: If an arbitrary body (in the state of rest) is under the pressure , then it
